All the stories in Farmyard Tales have been written in a
special way to ensure that young children succeed in
their first efforts to read.
To help with that success, first read all the story aloudand talk about the pictures. Then encourage yourchild
to read the short, simpler text at the top of each pageand read the longer text at the bottom of the page
